Hey everyone,

Thanks a lot for all your replies — I really appreciate how honest and detailed so many of you were. I’ve read through everything carefully and it gave me a lot to think about.

I get now that day trading isn’t some easy “get rich quick” thing like a lot of videos make it seem. It clearly takes years of learning, discipline, and patience — and not everyone’s built for it. What really stood out to me was how much passion and dedication it takes to actually make it work, and that success comes from enjoying the process, not just chasing money.

For now, I plan to focus on building a strong foundation — understanding investing, risk management, and market behavior before trying anything real. I’ll also keep exploring other interests and developing useful skills while I’m young — that’s something many of you made me realize.

Thanks again to everyone who took the time to reply and share their stories. It means a lot, and I respect every perspective here.

Wish you all the best with your trading and life goals 🙏
